I am unhappy with this app. Because the app doesn't regonized the GPS data and location.

Works very well if you are prepared to use it as a general guide. Distance and heart rate may not be accurate but this can be due to external factors such as GPS and water. I do not have the strap hr monitor but imagine accuracy would be fine if I did. I recommend as at least it recognises an open water swim which the watch does not do on its on. Easy to use and provides lots of information.

The data fields are interesting and the easy to change. The GPS needs work and is all over the place comparing to Garmin Open Water activity which after some updates are really good. I also suggest a better start/stop function for the activity.

this app has been one of the best installation that I had made in my Garmin. I bought this watch just for running purpose, but later on, making some research on the internet, I found this app to measure my swimming training (because also I swim), and after trying different alternatives, I stick with this app for many reasons: The GPS is the most accurate comparing to other swim apps, giving the exact distance A lot of data field yo play with it, choosing whatever you want to see The pool settings works perfectly, using different sensors to know when the pool's lap ends Many other reasons that makes this app so Good

I love the app and the gps view that shows me the lake and the lines that I am swimming. It helps me with my sighting. The yardage errors on the high side. I registered 2900 yards this morning while a friend had Garmin outdoor swim app that was 1900 yards. I will continue to use. Cheers

Simple to get up and running without change. Configuring looks a bit daunting though. Shared with my swim buddy. I have a Wahoo ant+ HR belt but can't find out how to link it.

I used this for the first time tonight. Seemed fairly accurate, although the accuracy will depend on the specific watch and the rate the watch is pinging satellites. I swam a supposed to be 1.2 mile course and my watch showed 1.4 which may have been the case since it was very choppy out tonight. I'm looking forward to trying it more. It is a little learning curve on how to stop the watcj and make sure everything is locked up. Lots of data screens if you are into that kind of thing

Looks good at first glance but in reality its not very useful. Using it on my Vivoactive 4, which doesnt have native open water swimming. As mentioned by many others the distance is way off and the app distances differ from what gets uploaded in the end. I know I'm swimming 250m lengths (Google maps) and the app mostly shows the correct length, but when its uploaded its substracted by about half, so each length is about 125m instead. Sometimes it doesn't pick up a lap at all, so both the time and distance looks like it was paused during a lap. Too bad this isnt working properly, since it seems to be affect by bugs, not faulty sensors, so the developer should be able to correct it...

It's a good app if your watch haven't the option for open water. A possible improvement could be make a more friendly UI. It will be great to get basic info in just one quick look while you are usin it!

The app works fine what I expected I am glad that we have a serious app for openwater swimming. The onlything that I can find is that the distance may not really accurate. The distance in the watchscreen is 100 till 200 meters higher than the final information in Connect. Does this have to do with something with gps and water?

Very useful app, especially if you have a watch that does not recognise open water swimming as an activity. I haven't been able to convert from yards to meters; otherwise it would be a 5* app review from me.

On first look through it looks promising can’t wait to test it out properly!

L'auto screen touch n'est pas une bonne solution, car pour faire une pause, il faut toucher plusieurs bouton. Il faudrait que la pause soit accessible directement et sans devoir déverrouiller la montre
